Spicules: Jets on the Sun
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
Imagine a pipe as wide as a state, half the Earth long, and filled with hot gas moving 50,000 kilometers per hour. This is a spicule, a jet of solar material guided by a transparent magnetic field. Thousands of these spicules dot the Sun's active regions, like the one shown here in a high-resolution image.
